Ok if all three of the above have stopped working this is what you do.

Remove the steering column cover (held on by 2 torx) and under the steering column is a light brown plastic connector with 2 red wires going in the right side and 2 brown wires coming out the left side.

Cut the 2 brown wires and join them together. Make sure you solder the wires or use a proper crimp connector and make sure u use insulation tape to cover it. and tape up the 2 lose ends of the brown wires.

make sure you check you aint just blown a fuse first lol

Topbombingkid 22nd February 2006 18:26

This is for the people who have checked all the fuses and made sure there is no loose wires any where.

So wat are you 'by passing' by just connecting the wires

Topbombingkid 22nd February 2006 21:03

its by passing a switch in the ignition its a common falt on the saxo even citroen do this mod (so ive been told) its this or pay for a new ignition.

Topbombingkid 22nd February 2006 21:05

Steveosaxo- it could just be the fan switch its self get a new 1 from the scrappys id try that b4 any thing else. cos its only working on 1 setting id say it was the fan switch

stevossaxo 22nd February 2006 21:06

what about if you only have one problem not all three
?

Topbombingkid 22nd February 2006 22:16

if uve only got 1 problem then dont do this mod id just investigate the the problem first. this mod is for if all 3 things arnt working.

boz 23rd February 2006 05:12

i had this problem mate and didnt bother fannying about with the wires. i got a new ignition barrel fitted, the contacts went in the old one, its a common fault on saxos, i needed to buy a whole new lock kit from shitreon.

my rear demister is not working and fuse is ok, could this mod rectify it

Scott 26th February 2006 03:46

unless all the otehr things listed are not workign then no its something else

woodsy 26th February 2006 03:46

so the two loose brown wires (not on the plug) just connect them together

coz they look like they are taped to the other brown wire
